Domainmonster.com today announced the general availability of Telnic’s Community Tel Hosting Platform to manage a .tel domain.

The Community Tel Hosting Platform ("CTH") allows registrants of the recently launched .tel domain to manage both public and private content that can be made available through their .tel domain. Domainmonster.com has seamlessly integrated the CTH with their own control panel to allow their users a one stop shop to manage their .tel domain, alongside other domain names in their portfolio.

"This is a really exciting stage for the .tel domain. The anticipation to manage domain names purchased so far has been exceptional", commented Matt Mansell, CEO, Domainmonster.com. "This isn’t all about the web proxy view you see with a .tel domain through a regular web browser; it’s about fast access to contact data, uniquely stored in the Web’s DNS for speed. Applications for real time live address books on my mobile are already a reality and the future potential is endless. I’m sure .tel domains will soon be used to keep the points of interest on my Sat-Nav up to date too!", said Mansell.

With just six days left at the premium Landrush pricing, anticipation is building for the consumer priced general availability of the .tel domain at 15:00 UTC, Tuesday 24th March 2009.

.tel domains (Landrush and General Availability) are available to order/pre-order now.
